I saw this news article on sky news today, about a man called Tommy McHugh.

The Northwest England man, a former street fighter and handyman, nearly died after a brain hemorrhage in 2001 — but miraculously woke from a week-long coma with an insatiable urge to create art.

They then went into his home and it showed that every surface of his walls was painted on, some amazing pictures.

They then interviewed the man and his words rang out so true:

“Why not have a go? How about a bit of splash and dash? Everyone has a wall at home, why not paint on it, give it a go.  If you don’t like it, you can just paint with white over it again and then give it another go, it’s not a problem. “

I love this attitude and it’s something that people need reminding of.
